No one, and I mean absolutely no one, “truly” “thinks in words”, even people who have a constant running narrative in their head. The reason is simple: How can you choose words/form sentences without any prior thought/idea that those words describe? How can you “struggle to find the right words” if your thoughts are originally in words (an experience I assume everyone has had)?

Huh, it’s weird then how I can’t think without words and/or images.
